2022 Map of Ship Shoal Inlet

USGS Topo · Published 2022

About this map

Godwin Island and Ship Shoal Island sit at the center of this intricate coastal survey, where the dynamic barrier island system of the Eastern Shore meets the Atlantic Ocean. The landscape is dominated by tidal marshes and winding waterways such as Big Creek Marsh and Red Drum Drain. Navigation through these shifting shoals relies on named passages like the Main Ship Shoal Channel and White Channel, which weave between Mink Island and the mainland. Historically significant landforms including Smith Island and Myrtle Island Beach provide a record of the shoreline's composition, where inlets like Bungalow Inlet and Little Inlet continuously reshape the reach of the tide against the Virginia coast.
